that's the highest level in 18 months due to superstorm sandy. today president obama is going to new york city to see the devastation firsthand from the storm. the president will tour the city's hardest hit borough of staten island. the president toured new jersey shortly after sandy hit but the mayor, mayor bloomberg, asked the president to stay away from new york at the time. he said then that the president's visit would just take up too many resources. >>> well, a new crab season is open now here around the bay area. >> yes. diners may pay more for the catch. the fresh catch should hit markets this afternoon. the fishermen will get $3 a pound. you can expect to pay about twice. that bay area restaurants say it will be worth it. >> i think it's going to be very full. so when you crack the crab, the meat will be very plentiful inside. and the taste of course of local crab is excellent. >> word is the crabs are bigger this year but there are fewer of them. so that may be the reason for the price. >> lawrence was on the pacifica pier over the week

. >> greta: i don't know how hurricane sandy -- i disagree. the first day after a tragedy, we are all so kind and good to each other. and our hearts bleed for everybody. then all of a sudden, a couple of days later when the real hardship sets in and we have lost everything and you can't get gasoline, there is the next cycle, which is not so nice -- >> the big question for me with president obama. i think that they may have made a strategic error, to be the guy he was in october. if i had been inviting president obama, i would have said, be the president, go to connecticut, go to new jersey, spend time in lower manhattan, visit the beaches in delaware. be the president, don't do the campaigning, delegate it -- >> greta: that would backfire. the relief -- this is true of every president, want just this president. they tie up traffic so badly and close down air space that other relief can't get in. it's a trade-off. people get mad at that. >> he is thinking like a statesman. like a knife fighter, 5 days out, have you to campaign. elections don't

so this is part of the twilight zone narrative in which superstorm sandy or so-called presidential gifts to minorities in this case a benghazi cover-up conspiracy is to blame for republicans losing the election. now, this is not to say that there can't be questions about what happened in benghazi. four americans died, and we must prevent such a tragedy ever happening again. but to suggest the phrasing of the perpetrators as al qaeda or extremist elements amounts to a vast conspiracy is, frankly, ridiculous. just for recollection's sake, let's remember the very real consequences of the bush administration's actions on faulty intelligence regarding iraq and a guy called saddam hussein. >> we were told by no less a person by your own secretary of state that he had an active and ongoing program for acquiring and developing weapons of mass destruction. >> and i fully believe that all of the evidence on that is not yet in. >> yes, apparently ambassador bolton believes in intelligence can be quite fluid in some circumstances, up to four years later. let's get right to our panel now. richard wol
